We decided to gain an extra day at Yosemite by travelling a long distance yesterday. We left West Yellowstone (Montana) at 7am and travelled through Idaho, Utah and into Nevada, spending the night at a ranching and mining town called Elko. We had covered 870 km, including a 70 km dead flat straight across a salt basin below Salt Lake City (the journey broken by the sighting of occasional art installations). The city itself was very picturesque below snow capped mountains and next to the huge lake, but it is very isolated.
